living wage calculator by state

"The living wage model is an alternative measure of basic needs. It is a market-based approach that draws upon
geographically specific expenditure data related to a family’s likely minimum food, child care, health insurance,
housing, transportation, and other basic necessities (e.g. clothing, personal care items, etc.) costs. Detailed
description of the data used in the tool can be found on the landing page of each state."
